Bocchini Vincent

[edit]

Bocchini, Vincent (Joseph Raymont Scott, Bocchini ) is a Canadian painter born in 1941 in the city of Calgary, Alberta and later moved to the province of Ontario.In 1970 Bocchini had been recognized by a professional artists magazine as one of Canadas top 20 painters, a judgement based on quality and technique rather than popularity. His works included straight paintings, etchings and moderns.

Mr Bocchini started his painting career in 1957 at the age of sixteen. Bocchini lost his parents at the age of four and his grandmother at the age of seven.He was then placed in foster homes until the age of sixteen when he began his career as a painter.Eventually seeking materials and sustenance to continue his art, he fell afoul of the law and spent several terms in prisons for minor offences.(Some of his paintings depicted his spirit at the time he was spending in jail). In the meanwhile he has studied art, art history, philosophy and drama at Queen's university as well as having studied in London Ontario and at Harvard.He had his first showing in St.Thomas,Ont. at the age of 24 which started him on his way.Since then he has had showings all over Canada and around the world. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arunjohnme1984 (talk • contribs) 23:03, 1 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
